CanonUSA on YouTube posted four tutorial videos about DPP 4.0. The video above gives an overview of the software and illustrates the user interface, the expanded controls, the improved processing algorithms and how to arrange your workspace to fit your preferences.

The first video below shows how you can use bookmarks, folders, “Collections”, filter settings and more to help organize your workspace and photos. The description for the next 2 videos can be read before the video.

Egami (translated) spotted a patent for an EF-M 9-18mm f/3.5-4.5 STM lens for the EOS M system. A bit weird since there is already the excellent EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens. I guess this is just one of the many patents Canon is filing and not a lens that will hit the market anytime soon.

Your image printed on one of our large format printers at The Photography Show

The camera in the image is the C500 PL mount with some “work” done to fit the larger 34mm sensor and a longer base to fit the “X”, which in itself makes no sense. We’re also told that most PL lenses wouldn’t work with a 34mm wide sensor.

However, there are new Canon Cinema cameras coming for NAB 2015, the EOS C300 Mark II and EOS C500 Mark II. Both rated CW4. Stay tuned…
